Month-long event Totally Thames returns this September with river-related events taking place along the river's entire 42-mile course through the capital. The festival - much of which is free - celebrates the main waterway which winds its way through the heart of the city, through a diverse mix of art, music, and educational events both on the water and along its banks and bridges at various riverside locations from Westminster Bridge to Tower Bridge and beyond. This year, the event looks at the river as a source of creativity that connects London to other cities around the world. Events include Rivers of the World, an exhibition of river-inspired artwork created by young people from around the world; Mother Danube, a week of free performance at unique riverside locations; and Bascule Chamber Concerts, a programme of events curated by Iain Chambers in the atmospheric subterranean space in Tower Bridge.
About River Thames
The River Thames, part of the longest river in England, is the waterway that winds its way through the centre of the capital. Once a bustling trade route bringing foreign trade to the city, it's now more commonly used for recreational purposes and the non-conformist commmuter. More about River Thames
